The Seedy Underbelly of the Mushroom Kingdom You Never Noticed

We all like video games,
but there’s some surprises lying below the surface of these games. The classic
world of Super Mario Bros is one of the most beloved video game universes of
all time, but there are some really dark implications you’ve never considered
behind it. I’m gonna give you the scoop, and inform you of some of this seedy
underbelly neither you or anyone else has ever thought about before...

Bowser and Peach Have
Something Going On

Here’s something suspicious:
Have you ever noticed that Princess Peach gets kidnapped an awful lot? Not only that, but it’s often
the same person who kidnaps her: that infernal lizard Bowser. What reason does
Bowser even have for kidnapping Peach if Mario just saves her every time?
Speaking of Mario, why does Peach only ever give him a kiss on the cheek after
he saves her life? Also, in a point I’m sure no one has ever examined before,
we have Super Mario Sunshine. In Super Mario Sunshine, Bowser Jr. thinks that
Princess Peach is his mother early in the game for some reason. Very suspicious
indeed...

Toad Is Probably In On
This

Ah, good old Toad. This
servant to the princess is always cheerful and reliable, with no exterior
motives whatsoever. OR IS HE?!?! You
may be shocked to discover that Toad might not be as innocent as he seems. For
example, you may remember that Toad could be found at the end of every world in
the original Super Mario Bros. He would always say that the princess is in
another castle, but how did he know
where the princess was?! Could it be that this weird mushroom-headed (or is it
a hat? DOUBLE CONSPIRACY!) servant is actually working for the other side? This
is big. But not as big as the next thing I’m about to reveal to you, which is
the single best-kept secret of the Mario Bros series.
